We kicked off 2017 on a high, with another Big Adventure.

Starting in the beautiful, cool climate of Chaing Mai, Thailand, this two-week motorcycle tour took us right into the heart of Burma – exploring ancient pagodas, rugged jungle and unforgettable winding roads.

Last year our ‘Burma Motorcycle Adventure’ was included in a travel feature in The Independent newspaper. Written by Sarah Baxter, the article gave information about adventurous and exciting ways to explore this mysterious and magical country.

We were very proud that TBAC was mentioned in the article alongside other well-known tour companies such as Selective Asia and Exodus. Thank you Sarah for including us!

2015 was a fantastic year for The Big Adventure Company. It was our first full year of operating as TBAC, after officially launching in August 2014, and to date we’ve led 15 big adventures in Romania, Nepal, Bolivia, Burma, Cambodia and Thailand. As we start a New Year we’ve taken this opportunity to reflect on 2015 with a ‘Review of the Year’ blog post.

Often referred to as ‘The Golden Land’, Burma is one of the most mysterious and undiscovered countries in the world. Having only recently opened its borders to tourists, this magical country is on the cusp of great change and we urge you to visit Burma now before everyone else goes.

We ran our first ‘Burma Motorcycle Adventure’ in January 2015 and it was a great success. We secured the necessary government permissions, permits and guides to allow us to ride in this very secretive country and we spent 2 weeks visiting the ancient temples and pagodas of Mandalay, Bagan and Inle Lake.

We were all completely enchanted by Burma and we’re extremely excited about returning to this incredible country in 2016. Here are 5 reasons why The Big Adventure Company loves Burma.
